Answer 1

The best example of odd pricing among the options is D, where a color printer is priced at $29.99, making it appear less than $30 and thus more attractive to buyers.

option d is the correct

Step-by-step explanation:

The question asks to identify the best example of odd pricing, which is a pricing strategy where the price of a product ends in an odd number, often $.99, to make the price appear smaller than it actually is. Among the options provided:

• A. Disposable razor blades are sold at a higher price than razor handles.
• B. One apple costs $2, but a box of six apples costs $10.
• C. A pair of jeans costs $50 to produce but is priced at $400.
• D. A color printer at an electronics retail shop is priced at $29.99.

Option D demonstrates the classic odd pricing strategy where the price is set just below a round number—instead of $30, the price is $29.99, making it psychologically more appealing to consumers.
